New oven for me!

Nancy Young said:

Took all day waiting, gawd I hate that. I was 6th on the
list for delivery. Turns out they wound up having to do
delivery 7 through 10, then starting with 1. Oh, well.
Not their fault I wait on pins and needles like I do.

Man, I'm happy already, I didn't realize what an ordeal
it's been waiting for my old oven to decide to start heating
up, even on a good day. Then the slow climb, 5 degrees at
a time, step by step. Took forever.

This bad boy hit 350 in no time. So far, so good. Love the
middle oval burner already and I haven't even used it. Like
the cast iron griddle thingy you can use over it, otherwise I
like the regular grate over it so you can slide pots back and
forth. Never thought much about that wasted real estate down
the middle of the older stoves I've had in the past.

I think it will do just as Sue's does, give me a good simmer
on all burners (at least 3 of them), the flame goes awfully low.

Yup, I'm happy.

And where, may I ask, is the picture of your new baby? :o)

Happy FOR you.
Tell me, do you have natural gas or do you use propane.
I swear I can smell propane a mile away. They always check for leaks but
never find any.
Same for natural gas.
Let me know how it goes over the next few weeks -- if you are a nose
sensitive person.

Natural gas.

Only time I smelled gas with the previous oven was when I turned
it on and it wouldn't ignite. After 10 minutes or so, it was my clue
to turn it off.

I'm not. It did smell as they said it would, I had to run it
for 45 minutes to burn off the new oven stuff. That's done, and
I don't notice any further smell.

Here's a picture: http://tinyurl.com/lnlyc ...

bisque or black, bisque or black ... looks fine in black.

Heh, pvc, no oval Ray Ray pots. Hmmmmm ... maybe I

it was 92 today and my air conditioning is broken and the new

I'm whining too -- it was 90 outside, I believe; the attic was 119º. The
guys came to install new furnace/air in all of the house; they hooked up
the whole house fan and brought the attic down to 88º in a few minutes.
They are doing it in installments; I purchased some wrap/turkey/cheese
sandwiches from Costco yesterday so I wouldn't have to do any cooking today.
They'll be back tomorrow morning at 6 a.m. (after driving 1 hour to get
here).

Good grief! You paid *HOW* much for a range?
;-)

It does look (and sound) nice though.

A good gas range is a joy. Our good one is selling with the house.
The crappy one at our apartment...
The burners work pretty well, but our rent is too high to have to put
up with a crappy oven. Hear that Philip H. Barron?
